This is an unusual subject for you, but it is superb, nonetheless! The reflections in the water of the building gives us two scenes for the price of one. Excellent composition, sharpness and color fidelity.

Hello Takero,
Wow ! This is a wonderful presentation of the typical houses of Shirakawago !
A beautiful winter scenery showing the beautiful architecture well.
An extra bonus is the splendid reflection in the water of the field.
Best regards, Paul

Not much snow indeed after the rain, but then you where rewarded with a great reflection of the stunningly beautiful house in the rice paddy. As you say, no other tourists is usually a good thing. But then it is us ourselves that are the tourists to bother the others ...
have a great weekend

Hello Takero!
Beautiful place and details!
In spite of that not favorable weather, you did an excellent job and took a pretty attractive picture!
Sharpness, exposure, colors, vertical format, chosen pov and ocmposition are all very good photo qualities that really pleased me!
TFS - congrats,
Cheers,

Dear Takero,
it is a beautiful village with beautiful houses with the dark color contrasts nicely with the white snow. The reflection in the flooded field adds an aesthetic note. I read on Wikipedia that these houses were intended for rearing silkworms, I imagine that the interior must be very typical. They have very high air and construction with these steep roofs require a lot of ingenuity.
Regards, have a nice day.

Hi Takero,
I missed many of your beautiful photos. This is one of them. Superb winter house close-up photo with very well balanced colors, perfect light, very good clarity. The mirroring in field water is perfect. The well-chosen tight crop eliminates all unwanted distractions.
Very well done.
Wish you a very nice weekend.
Greetings,
